We're counting the minutes to the holidays, and devoting this week to decorating and festooning—with ease (and time to kick back and start catching up with family and friends along the way). Watch for inspirational interiors, simple DIY projects—including a pine-tasseled table setting by star event designer David Stark—and plenty of present ideas.

Tuesday
Above: For the first day of Hanukkah, we've gathered 5 Favorites: modern menorahs (some of which can put in appearances year round). This solid brass example comes with a matching brass tray.
Wednesday
Above: You'll have to wait until Wednesday to see David Stark's DIY Project, but here's a detail. Cost for the accompanying cotton napkins: about $2 each. Photograph by Corrie Hogg of David Stark Design.
Thursday
Above: On Thursday, Margot pays a House Call to Sonora, Mexico—where it snows, on occasion—to visit the ranch built by the Jorge Almada and Marie-Anne Midy, the couple behind design studio Casamidy. For an inkling of their capabilities, take a look at their San Miguel Homebase and their Waxed Canvas and Leather Furniture.
Friday
